Good Job Chessie. I will appreciate if you can make a video on how you set you off-contact evenly across all heads. After sometimes I found out that i lose my off-contacts on some printheads. Thanks.
Regarding the maximum print area to screen size ratio mentioned in tip 3, how much distance would you recommend between the screen border and edge of the design? Hope that made sense, thank you! Wonderful video 🎨
The 41cm is still to wide for the pallet and should be 38cm max. You eliminated the bowing of the squeegee by not allowing the squeegee edges to be on the higher tension outside screen edges but introduced some fatigue in the mesh by the mesh being sandwiched between the squeegee and pallet edges. You can get away with millimeters variances between squeegee and pallet widths on an auto but manually, you should be half an inch inside the max width of the pallet and that still requires holding concentration, throughout the print run. A 16” wide oversized pallet only gives you a 1” max image width upgrade from a standard 15” pallet. That mean max image width on an oversized pallet for manual is 13” and standard is 12”
The squeegee is 41cm and the pallet is 40.61cm.. For a manual printer, you should have at least a half an inch clearance from squeegee edge to pallet edge. And same from max image edge to squeegee edge..
It's so expensive that kind of materials you have, i only have here is a portable platten it's kind a cheap but it's good for me.😅 i'm sorry if my english is not good.
